    Abstract:
    For many years, health care workers have faced the risk of job-related violence, and the incidence of serious threat to employees continues to increase. This Professional Development Series document discusses the elements of an effective health care violence evaluation and mitigation program that are necessary to meet the objectives of the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) recommendations. The information is designed to help health care employers reduce and prevent the incident of workplace violence as well as track the progress of their efforts.
